A rare surviving example of authentic French Crown Jewels. Louis-Philippe I of France, son of Philippe-Égalité and Louise-Marie de Bourbon-Penthièvre, married Marie-Amélie of Bourbon-Two Sicilies in 1809. She was the sixth daughter of Ferdinand IV, King of the Two Sicilies. Following the abdication of Charles X in 1830, Louis-Philippe and Marie-Amélie ascended the throne as King and Queen of the French, reigning until 1848, when the Revolution led to the establishment of the Second Republic and forced the royal family into exile. Marie-Amélie of Bourbon-Two Sicilies (1782–1866) and Louis-Philippe of Orléans (1773–1850) thus became the final sovereigns of the French monarchy. The pearl and diamond earrings originated from Queen Marie-Amélie’s mother,
